Harbour Update – posted 24/06/19

The predicted thunderstorms never materialised today, well not yet anyway. In Corfe Village the welcome sound our c20 Common Swift welcomed us as we collected in our sound recording equipment from Corfe Castle. The recording session its self was not very productive with only 1 Moorhen and 1 Lapwing sound recorded passing through the gap during the night. On Hartland newly fledged Reed Bunting were bounding along the heather and 2 Hobby were at the east end of Slepe Heath. At Lytchett Fields a single Little Ringed Plover was logged but there was no sign of yesterdays Spotted Redshank. On the Brownsea Lagoon the Spoonbill number is rising already with 6 today out from the Mac Hide. An Osprey was seen out hunting over the Wareham Channel before heading back towards Wareham Forest.
